Friars Avenue, Stone, ST15

Tired of negotiating garden sun rights like it’s a high-stakes summit? This two-bedroom detached bungalow lets everyone bask in the glory—no arguments required—while offering a well-presented home just a stroll from Stone’s vibrant centre and a range of local shops, eateries, and travel links via bus and road. Even better, it comes with no upward chain, so you can move in before the next sunny spell sparks another debate.

A bright and airy entrance hall guides you into this home. A glazed door and side panels lead you into an expansive L-shaped living/dining room with stunning dual-aspect picture windows, a feature fire surround and plenty of room for unwinding. The kitchen currently boasts storage spaces with base and overhead cabinetry, room for appliances, and a gorgeous view of the rear garden. Two bright bedrooms await, including the main bedroom with a door providing access to the garden; the second bedroom is perfect for guests, a study, a dressing room, or even a creative hobby room. The shower room provides a spacious shower with an accessible handrail, a sink, and a storage cupboard. The W/C is just off the entrance hall.

Outside is a true delight to enjoy with a generous paved patio seating space that leads onto a grass lawn, mature shrubberies and a large conifer border to the rear. To the front, an additional well-maintained grass lawn awaits, plus a tandem tarmac driveway offers off-road parking and access into a single garage.
